    Fun fact: Singlish is syllable-timed, which means each syllable of every word is given the same amount of stress when you speak. This is why it tends to sound monotonous and seems to lack the lilt of other varieties of English. Varieties of English like RP and American English, on the other hand, are stress-timed, which makes them sound more prosodic.

    The only time I pronounce the “th” in mother is during English oral LOL

    Instead of typing out the whole word, I've also invented the words "veh" for "very" and "prolly" for "probably" just to make things easier for myself xD

    This video had me in stitches sia; it's hard to imagine what we perceive to be an accent with a boring, monotonous tone and lazy, clipped enunciation as a difficult accent to learn. Plus your effort was damn good 10/10 Georgia thanks for this video!

  • @jimpek9645

    I think there's no need to try to speak like Singaporeans, it only makes one feel awkward when communicating with people. But as one lives there longer time makes sure that one's gradually being absorbed into its own vibs in all aspects of a person's life, make no doubt about that, as each country carries within itself its own specific vibs that reflect upon the people. Let nature takes its own course because by trying one may come out with an accent that may not be in congruence with the local accent.

    Georgia you’re so good at many things! So amazed at how you adjusted with the Singaporean culture. Love always! ♥️

  • @Duperman2494

    YT decided to recommend me this clip 5yrs after I first saw it. I'm not sure if you will read this Georgia but your silliness and ability to laugh at yourself is such a gem! I hope you're still the same!

    Heart warming to see you make many attempts to understand and use the Singaporean Accent :)

    Some of those old pre war houses with wooden windows and ceramic tiles that you liked so much are peranakan homes. You really should do a vlog on peranakan culture in Singapore from a Foreigner's perspective. Their home designs and styling, their food, their clothing, their jewelry, and their superstitions and beliefs.
